The United States Navy exists to defend the nation, not serve as an armed escort for Trump’s oil schemes. When a president starts bragging about piracy and turns American military power into a tool for moving oil, that’s not strength. It’s a disgrace to the uniform.
Donald Trump is using the United States Navy as a smuggling ring to move oil through the Straight of Hormuz: Ben Meiselas: "We're not using our navy as a navy. We're using our navy as smugglers. Trump is making posts bragging about being a pirate. This is the proud U.S. Navy."

Are these demons seriously posing for glam shots as they destroy our country with never-ending war
FT exclusive: Mike Waltz, Donald Trump’s ambassador to the UN, said the US ‘can maintain [its Iranian] blockade for the foreseeable future’, and warned Tehran it must reach a ‘meaningful agreement’ on its nuclear programme. ft.trib.al/wlcvoMc

This the is some of the best reporting about Iranian strikes on US military bases that I've read, including accounts from service members that "described leadership as 'rudderless,' caught off guard by a war no one had prepared them for…." xitter.cf/MeidasTouch/status/211…
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: MeidasTouch has obtained dozens of NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN photos and videos revealing devastating damage to U.S. military bases from Trump's Iran war. Troops and military families are breaking their silence, describing being abandoned by their own government. “It’s so much worse than people realize.” meidasnews.com/news/so-much-…

Previously unseen footage from July shows an Iranian ballistic missile impact at Jebel Ali, UAE. The missile evades air defense interceptors and strikes dangerously close to U.S. personnel stationed at the base.

Jeffries: The days of the unfettered Trump crime spree are coming to an end. The American people have had enough. They’ve seen the unprecedented corruption unleashed on the American people, and they know that there’s a cost to corruption. Because if you have all of these folks who are part of the Trump cartel, both inside the administration and outside the administration, who have been so focused on enriching themselves, their family members, their friends, and their donors, then they’re not focused on actually making life more affordable and improving the quality of life of the American people. Which is why we’re now seeing that corruption and its cost have emerged as a top issue for the American people. That’s why Democrats are promising full, complete, relentless accountability when the new Congress begins in just a few month

Jeffries: No one who’s part of the Trump cartel is going to get a pass. We’ve made clear that if you have folks who have been stealing from the American people, shortchanging the American people, and screwing over the American people, which is exactly what we’ve seen during the first two years of the Trump administration, that we are going to hold you accountable using every tool available to the United States Congress.

Meidas Touch: Service members, contractors, and military families share photos, videos, and firsthand accounts of the Iran war that they say the Pentagon has kept from the American public. MeidasTouch, in coordination with our partner VALOR Media Network, has obtained dozens of never-before-published photos and videos showing damage to U.S. military installations in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain, along with firsthand accounts from people who were there. They describe destroyed aircraft, bombed-out barracks and mess halls, troops digging their own foxholes, and military families hiding in parking garages while Iranian missiles flew overhead. meidasnews.com/news/so-much-…

There is tremendous reporting being done here. I've been talking about the extensive damage to NSA Bahrain since May, but these pictures show the extent of the damage to a number of US facilities in the region and the military's inadequate attempts to protect servicemembers.

This is absolutely unacceptable. They are hiding their failure and abandoning our military families while Hegseth goes to football games and campaigns for Republicans. He is a failure and must be removed from office.
